By the way, if the earth accelerates with 9.81 m/s² upwards, how fucking fast are we going at the moment? What happens
ifwhen we reach light speed? The earth folds into a sphere?Let's calculate that. It takes 299792458 [m/s] / 9.81 [m/s²] = 30559884 [s] before you'd reach light speed, assuming starting from a stand still (which raises more questions about when and how the earth started moving anyway, but that's another topic).
30559884 seconds is roughly just 21222 days or 58 years. What.
